Oversized (and I mean, absolutely huge) hoodie with jeans

I have decided to snatch one of my dad's hoodies (that he bought on impulse and has never ever worn) and wear them.
They are sooo warm and comfier than most things I am used to (very much of a girly girl you see).

But, they are like ten sizes too big, with the arms longer than mine too. When I wear it (which I am currently doing right now - test run lol), it doesn't look ridiculous, but I am a size 6/8 at the best of times (being 5'1 does strange things to your size lol), and it sort of swamps me, but in a nice way...

So question - should I risk wearing it to college tomorrow with tight dark bootcut jeans? (The hoodie is grey-ish fleecy-ish).
I reckon I would be comfortable in it, but what do you guys think? Would it look OK?

Thanks :biggrin:

I do ALL the time, like everyday. I wear just cargo's and huge hoodies(I'm the same size as you!) and it's fine. No one has ever batted an eyelid. Go forth and be comfy!

Lol, nah, it's actually quite a funky looking jacket lol.

I am just worried that it will look like I forgot to put my contacts on, and brought the wrong size.

I am tiny in size, so reckon it might look a bit funny. It looks really nice on many girls that I have seen wearing it, but they have all been taller than me (but let's face it, most people are lol).

You might look a bit odd, but so what?

I would wear them with super skinny jeans.... to emphasize the contrast between voluminous hoodie and slender body.

I've seen petite girls wearing the massive hoodie look before and think it looks pretty cool. And cosy too i imagine!

I am not a particularly big fan of skinny jeans (I haven't got any) but my fav bootcut jeans are tight enough, and give a fair enough contrast.

yh should wear skinny jeans its creates a good contrast, bootcut may not pull it off aswel

Whoooo - so it's a yes to the oversized hoodie then.

Now onto the next dilemma - how do I do my hair :biggrin:

Lol..

Ponytail to get that sporty look, or flowing hair down to get the contrast?

*thinks*

Always go for comfort over style, is what I say. I love feeling comfy and swamped in my own clothes when I'm studying. :biggrin:

I do this all the time. I am quite a lot taller than you but I honestly don't see it being a problem. Anyway, I say ponytail. Long flowing hair can get a bit messed up by a hoodie!

I was hoping someone might say flowy hair, because I hate ponytails.

But what the hell, tomorrow is the day I try TWO new things haha.

hmm how long is your hair? if it's really long(like past your boobs) then have it down, otherwise a messy pony tail and you might pull it off.
might

i'm not big on over sized hooded things, but plenty of people are
